How to remove applications from Application browser in GNOME

English Applications
1

Now, here’s my problem. I installed many Windows programs under Wine,
and later I just deleted them. But in Application Browser in GNOME,
there remained their icons under Wine group. I want to remove them, but
in menu, there’s only the possibility to “Uninstall”, and this causes
the Application browser to close and nothing else. The icon remains
there. So is there any possibility to get rid of these icons of removed
programs from Application browser?

Are you talking about the Slab menu or the usual Gnome menu?

Hi & welcome!

Typically you will find the wine application items in ones user
directory (as wine installs to the user environment as default).

Check /home/<user>/.local/share/applications/

System wide application icons usually get placed in
/usr/share/applications

The .desktop files in these folders hold the configuration for the
icons. There can also be a png file (icon image) that goes along with
it.

Cheers,
Wj
